  Hi,
  I’ve begun a move from wordpress.com to using wordpress.org on http://www.scitnecessitas.com.

  My blog at energisers.wordpress.com has followers; I’m wondering how they can be transferred to the new blog? Is there an elegant way of doing this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please install the JetPack plugin and return to this thread to post that you have done that. Staff will be able to transfer your email subscribers for you. Those followers using the WordPress.com Reader cannot be transferred.

  Thanks timethief. I’ve now installed the Jetpack plugin and would be much obliged if staff could transfer my email subscribers.

  Goodie, almost there. Would it be possible to flag this for staff attention? Or should I wait patiently because it’s the weekend?

  Hey there!

  Same situation here. My old site is:
  mostlysunnybunny.wordpress.com
  New: mostlysunnyblog.com
  I already have Jetpack installed. Could someone please help me transfer my email subscribers?

  Many thanks!

  Sunny

  Greetings! I have the same question. Can someone help me transfer my email subscribers from powerofslow.wordpress.com to powerofslow.com? I’d much appreciate any assistance you can provide.

  powerofslow – apologies for the late reply. We didn’t see your post, as it was added to someone else’s already-resolved thread.

  Did you still need help with transferring subscribers? Just let us know and we’d be glad to help.

  Hi Kathryn! I actually do still need your help with that. I went from around 190 subscribers to about 32. Ouch.

  Let me know what you need.

  Thanks!
  Christine
